Report of the Medical Officer of Health.
thus preserved a label upon which is stated the nature of the preservative
and the maximum amount used. If this were done and
it was found that the article contained other preservative than
that stated or in an excessive amount, then it should be made to
constitute an offence under the Sale of Food and Drugs Acts.
In conclusion, I am pleased to be able to report that the whole
of the work of the department was carried out by the Inspectors
and the Clerical Staff to my entire satisfaction.
I have the honour to be,
Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
P. CALDWELL SMITH,
Medical Officer of Health.
